You can use the Lightning cable that came with the phone. Connect to USB in center console.
Adapter primarily functions as a dock and provides convenience.

Not really but it substantially adds convenience. It also frees up the USB port.

I'm not convinced this is actually true. BMW says that generically about snap-in adapters ever since they launched the first ones for Motorola and Nokia phones. However I don't know if Apple has an API to extend the antenna through the dock connector. I suspect they don't.

BTW, is there an ETA for this cradle yet? Hopefully something before the iPhone 6 comes out.

I'm in the US. If you are in the US you can buy one from wdimagineer on this forum. If you are in Germany you can get it from your local dealer or on eBay.de
